Co-founded by Bala Subramaniam, a professor in chemical engineering, and Busch, the Center for Environmentally Beneficial Catalysis (CEBC) was lauched by a National Science Foundatin (NSF) grant and the NSF Engineering Research Centers (ERC) program to create a multidisciplinary, multi-unversity center at KU to help mitigate environmental harm caused by manufacturing fuels and chemicals. This series contains records documenting Busch's work with CEBC and collaborations with other research centers. It includes correspondence, project proposals and reports, presentation slides, event programs, publications, center guidelines, seminar and meeting minutes, schedules, and financial records.
